Topic Description

In the tumultuous landscape of political unrest, working teams often find themselves grappling with conflicting alliances and beliefs. This talk provides a roadmap for navigating these challenges, emphasizing the importance of understanding, unity, and resilience. We delve into the intersection of political unrest and mental health, exploring how it impacts working teams and breeds polarization. By dissecting the causes and consequences of polarization, we equip participants with strategies to mitigate division and foster healthy collaboration. Drawing insights from social psychology, we delve into the underlying dynamics of conflict and provide a self-check based on these principles. Through fostering understanding, respecting diversity, and collectively embracing a shared goal, we empower teams to navigate adversity and emerge stronger together.
